Overview

Key facts

Develop expertise in multiple areas of Information Technology (IT) including computer programming, data analysis and multimedia. As you study the fundamentals of problem-solving and programming, the importance of data modelling, and design and development, you’ll be equipped to help your current or future workplace run smoothly and innovatively.

Put your knowledge and skills to the test as you work on a collaborative ICT project across two core subjects. Working together in teams, students will select a project from industry, the local community, or the university research community and use various approaches to IT project management to determine what makes for best practice and results.

You will develop strong collaborative and interpersonal skills, gain experience in problem-solving for complex issues, learn how to enhance project outcomes, and take a practical research project from proposal to presentation. Your project could be in the area of marketing, web development, game development, or another that your team may choose.

Career Opportunities

Graduates of the Information Technology - Business Administration program from James Cook University are highly skilled and well equipped to manage the challenges of the future in terms of business and technology.
The business knowledge and technical skills you gain throughout your degree will give you the flexibility to pursue a career in almost any industry. However, you will be especially equipped to work in interdisciplinary contexts that require a business and technology background.
Your advanced leadership skills and strong critical thinking abilities could see you pursue careers such as chief technology officer, programmer, network administrator, systems developer, software developer, systems analyst or program administrator.
